   BARKER PUBLISHING HOUSE — BLOG section
   Loaded ONLY on /blog/ pages, after golden.css.

   Kept in its own file rather than appended to main.css so a blog
   change can never repaint the 14 existing pages or force a sitewide
   cache bust. It introduces ZERO new tokens, ZERO new fonts and no
   framework — every value below is a var() reference to the existing
   system, which is what lets golden.css re-skin the blog for free.
